The Villa

Inspired by nature with its honeycomb like layout, this exclusive-use, private villa has 4 en-suite ocean facing bedrooms and multiple open plan living areas. Booked for a single group at a time, Sandcastle comfortably sleeps 8 guests. The villa can be booked for a group of 4, 6 or 8 guests, with the option to increase to 10 guests, providing the additional 2 guests are children. 

 

 

Unbroken views and floor to ceiling windows adorn the villa and with culturally significant objects scattered throughout the interiors. Sandcastle's architecture borrows from the Maleness granaries with its sandcastle like spires as well as influences from Santa Fe and Mexico. Plastered with beach sand, from the very beach it overlooks, and embracing an adobe technique of mud packing to obtain the undulating feel on the walls, you will feel as if you are living in a real life sandcastle when staying at our luxury beachfront villa.

The Lounge

A peaceful retreat at the heart of the house, the lounge is the epicentre of this beachfront villa with its wrap around ocean views and plush chairs to take it all in.  It's not uncommon to be reading your book and notice the Nyala on the lawn with you and whales breaching in the background.

Each living area is complete with a fire place, making it the perfect space to enjoy a board game or a crisp beverage at the end of each day.

Waters

Whether you're looking for a private beach villa or bush villa with a swimming pool, Sandcastle offers it all. With an infinity pool seemingly plunging into the Indian Ocean, gaze out over kilometers of untouched, beach front and ancient coastal forest

Stretch out on daybeds and sun loungers as swallows skim the surface of the water and giraffe join you for evening sundowners. Breathe in the crisp ocean air with hints of the African bushveld, and allow yourself to be hypnotised by a chorus of birdsong.

We stared out at the calm surface of the ocean broken only in places by breaching whales, while closer to the shore a string of dolphins was slowly traversing across the horizon. In this setting, it’s hard to not feel like you’ve found freedom.

Enclaves

The dappled, Mexican inspired courtyard is an idyllic spot for long languid lunches under the acacia tree. With a solar heated plunge pool for the little ones to enjoy while sipping the afternoon away. Suited to groups of friends or large families, the villa is large enough to offer everyone their own space.

Throughout the villa there are secret spots, to get stuck into a book, indulge in a cat-nap or play the best game of hide-and-seek!
